Abstract: An intraluminal medical device (100) having nested interlocking axially adjacent segments (120) that remain interlocked during delivery to an intended treatment site. The medical device (100) is preferably a stent in which the nested interlocked axially adjacent segments (120) provide increased control and stability of the stent during delivery and increased vessel support when full deployment is effected. In either case, a series of repeating cells comprise a segment. Each cell comprises a protrusion and a radially and circumferentially adjacent receptacle. The protrusion from at least one cell in a segment interlocks with the receptacle of an axially adjacent segment to form the stent. The protrusions remain coupled with a corresponding receptacle during delivery of the stent to the intended treatment site, and can remain engaged thereafter, or can disengage from the corresponding receptacle after full deployment of the stent is effected. An L/D ratio of the expanded length of the stent segment relative to the expanded diameter of the stent is preferably greater than one to enhance stent delivery and maximize fatigue durability of the structure. Radiaopaque markers may be inserted within, integral therewith, or coated thereon ends of the protrusions.

Abstract: In a combined scanner, a main magnet (20) and magnetic field gradient coils (28) housed in or on a scanner housing (12, 18) acquires spatially encoded magnetic resonances in an imaging region (14). Solid state radiation detectors (50, 50', 50'') disposed in or on the scanner housing are arranged to detect gamma rays emitted from the imaging region. Time-of-flight positron emission tomography (TOF-PET) processing (52, 54, 58, 60, 62) determines localized lines of response based on (i) locations of substantially simultaneous gamma ray detections output by the radiation detectors and (ii) a time interval between said substantially simultaneous gamma ray detections. TOF-PET reconstruction processing (64) reconstructs the localized lines of response to produce a TOF-PET image.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil d'alignement de substrat assurant des mouvements d'extension et de retrait minimums du transporteur de substrat, pour aligner rapidement un substrat sans abîmer la face arrière, tout en augmentant le débit de traitement du substrat. Dans un mode de réalisation de cette invention, l'appareil d'alignement comprend un mandrin inversé qui est relié à un châssis, ainsi qu'un système de transfert de substrat pouvant transférer le substrat du mandrin vers le transporteur sans repositionnement rotatif du substrat. Le mandrin inversé empêche l'obstruction des éléments d'alignement du substrat et, en association avec ledit système de transfert, ce mandrin inversé permet au transporteur de rester à l'intérieur du châssis lors de l'alignement. Dans un autre mode de réalisation de la présente invention, l'appareil d'alignement comprend une tête de détection rotative qui est reliée à un châssis, et un support de substrat comportant des pastilles d'appui transparentes pour supporter le substrat lors de l'alignement, de manière que le transporteur puisse rester à l'intérieur du châssis pendant le processus d'alignement. L'alignement du substrat est exécuté indépendamment du placement d'éléments d'alignement sur les pastilles de support. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation de l'invention, le support de substrat utilise un système d'amortissement servant à amortir le substrat à l'intérieur de l'appareil, ce qui permet une permutation rapide des substrats.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système et un procédé qui permettent de détecter et d'empêcher l'utilisation de systèmes d'imagerie non autorisés lors de représentations théâtrales.  Des capteurs sont déployés lors d'un événement théâtral afin de détecter un signal de focalisation et/ou le signal RF d'un dispositif d'imagerie non autorisé.  Des signaux de défocalisation sont utilisés pour perturber le système d'autofocalisation de dispositifs d'imagerie qui ne font pas appel à des systèmes de focalisation IR.  Un signal de blocage comprenant des fréquences lumineuses invisibles peut être combiné afin de produire un signal de blocage qui est reçu sous la forme de lumière blanche par la caméra CCD d'un dispositif d'imagerie, rendant inutilisable l'image enregistrée.  Les signatures d'émission des dispositifs d'imagerie sont stockées dans une mémoire de données et distribuées aux utilisateurs des systèmes de blocage via un réseau.  Les signatures d'émission sont associées à des signaux de blocage afin de permettre aux systèmes de détection et de blocage de répondre rapidement à l'utilisation d'un dispositif d'imagerie non autorisé.
